reason for a blocked coronary artery with atherosclerosis may be
Answers
Coronary artery disease is thought to begin with damage or injury to the inner layer of a coronary artery, sometimes as early as childhood. The damage may be caused by various factors, including:
Smoking
High blood pressure
High cholesterol
Diabetes or insulin resistance
Sedentary lifestyle
Once the inner wall of an artery is damaged, fatty deposits (plaque) made of cholesterol and other cellular waste products tend to accumulate at the site of injury in a process called atherosclerosis. If the surface of the plaque breaks or ruptures, blood cells called platelets will clump at the site to try to repair the artery. This clump can block the artery, leading to a heart attack.
atherosclerosis is a disorder resulting from the position of cholesterol fibre fats and Calcium on the walls of the arteries resulting in the narrowing of the lumen as a result the blood supply of heart muscle is gradually reduced.
